Zoo Vets: Elephant Aromas

Elephants are cool and adorable. When teaching about jobs you come across vets, and you can also speak about different animals, including elephants. This topic will add a warm and positive touch to your lesson.

Video script: My name is Suzan Murray and I’m a chief veterinarian
at Smithsonian’s National Zoo. I like the way elephants smell, and apparently
so do my children. I got home very late one night. And one of our technicians
said: “You guys need to change your clothes because you smell like elephants. I
didn’t really believe her. I never really smelled it. I got home and my
children were asleep. It was about ten. And I was kissing them goodnight. And
one of my five-year-olds Lynn woke up and said: “I smell elephants”. And I
thought,” Well, one – my technician is right, and two – how lucky is my child
that even in his sleep he knows what the elephant smells like”. So I think
elephant’s might be my favorite smell.
